Exact Solar Review
Solar and battery installer for homes and businessesBased in Newtown, PennsylvaniaProfile updated October 13, 2026
Is Exact Solar a good choice?
Exact Solar fits Pennsylvania and New Jersey homeowners who want a long-running local installer that uses its own crews. It says it has served the region since 2005 and never subcontracts installation. It prints five contractor and electrical license numbers in its site footer, and its residential FAQ says the 10-year workmanship guarantee covers roof penetrations. Ask which panel and battery brands your proposal uses, since it works with several.

Exact Solar reviews: what customers say
Each review site shows its own score; we read them on October 12 and 13, 2026 and do not combine them or add our own rating.
- Google4.9 / 5113 reviews · Newtown, PA office listing only, not company-wideRead reviews
The five positive reviews below praise knowledgeable, honest staff, clear updates on permits and the utility hookup, and systems that reviewers say perform as expected. There was only one negative review among those we read, from a caller who reports being laughed at when told the company does not work in that area. These are issues to ask about, not a measure of how often they happen. Ask Exact Solar first whether it serves your address and how long utility approval usually takes.

How we picked these: the five newest 5-star and the five newest 1- or 2-star reviews with written text on Google and Trustpilot, as of October 2026 (113 reviews read, back to Sep 2, 2015). We found no Trustpilot page for Exact Solar on October 12, 2026. Each quote is one sentence, word for word. Picking the highest and lowest ratings shows the range of experiences; it is not a representative sample, and we did not verify what reviewers describe.
How much does Exact Solar cost?
Exact Solar does not publish a system price on its payment page; it offers a free estimate. Ask for an itemized quote with the cash price, system size and equipment models. For a loan, ask for the lender, APR, fees and financed total; for its PPA, ask for the rate per kilowatt-hour and the term. For state price ranges, see our solar panel cost guide; for how the plans compare, see loans, leases and PPAs.

Solar loan
You own itMonthly payments; the company says the loan has fixed payments, no dealer fees and no prepayment penalty. The lender is not named on the payment page.

Plans as listed on Exact Solar’s paying for solar page and PPA page, read October 13, 2026.
Exact Solar names no panel brand on the pages we read. Its storage page says it works with Enphase, SolarEdge, Sonnen, Tesla and other battery brands and calls itself vendor agnostic. Its service page says it handles warranty claims with Enphase and SolarEdge. Your written proposal should list the exact panel, inverter and battery models, the system size in kilowatts (kW) and the forecast yearly production in kilowatt-hours (kWh).
What does Exact Solar’s warranty cover?
Coverage | What Exact Solar publishes | What to confirm |
|---|---|---|
Solar panels | 25 years (manufacturer’s warranty, per the company) | The panel model and whether the 25-year term is the maker’s product or output warranty. |
Panel output | Not listed separately; one page says the system has “guaranteed production” for 25 years | Confirm in your proposal: whether a production guarantee applies to your system and who holds it. |
Inverter | 25 years for “components” (manufacturer’s warranty, per the company) | The inverter model and its maker’s exact term. |
Battery | Not published | Confirm in your proposal: the battery maker’s term and who services it. |
Labor and workmanship | 10 years | What the guarantee covers and excludes. |
Roof penetrations | Covered by the workmanship warranty (the company says roof penetrations related to its installation are covered) | That the 10-year term applies to leaks at panel mounts. |
Company-published terms from Exact Solar’s residential solar FAQ and solar PV page, read October 13, 2026. It has no separate warranty page. Your signed agreement decides what applies.
Under the PPA, the provider owns the system and the company says maintenance and monitoring are included; check the PPA for its own warranty terms.
Where does Exact Solar operate, and which licenses were checked?
Exact Solar’s homepage says it serves Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and its residential page says it is locally owned in Bucks County (read October 13, 2026). Customer reviews on its site come from Bucks, Montgomery and Philadelphia areas in Pennsylvania and Mercer County and Princeton in New Jersey. It lists no counties as a service area. A listed state does not mean every address qualifies or that EcoGen can connect you with Exact Solar there.
